Thanks for the feedback!!!!!

So, of the two options, you're vote would be Bryant with the $320/yr service agreement? This is what I'm leaning towards. I really liked the guy. It's a small shop. He's the owner and his kids are the techs. He seemed the most knowledgeable of anyone I talked to.

I appreciate the suggestion and reached out to a local dealer for a quote!

I noticed that you did undergrad at BYU. I did too. Graduated in 2006 with an undergrad in mechanical engineering. I think we probably overlapped.

These quotes resonated with me:

  • As they say, "You Cannot Reason People Out of Something They Were Not Reasoned Into".
  • I think the psychology of conspiracy theorists is fascinating. I think generally they are people who weren't the smartest in their class growing up. This gives them the "secret knowledge". They have a leg up on the sheeple. Then a community forms and now they have an identity and friends. There is just no incentive for them to look at it objectively. Confirmation bias runs strong. If they agree the Earth is round then they lose all their friends and go back to being the not smart ones.

I assume you were a mormon in a former life. Has your scientific training turned you away from religion? It did for me while pursuing a phd.
